matzo balls

Mix the eggs, seltzer, chicken fat, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Gradually stir in the matzo meal, stirring until everything is well combined.

Chill, covered, for at least 4 and up to 8 hours.

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Using cool, wet hands, shape the matzo mixture into 8 balls, each about 1½ in in diameter. Reduce the heat to simmering and gently add the matzo balls. Cover the pot and poach the matzo balls in the barely simmering water for 25 min.

— poaching separately will preserve the ﬂavors in the matzo balls so they don’t just taste like mushy bits of soup. The temperature of just water is also easier to control than that of a pot of soup.

Hi there outstanding website! Does running a blog like this take a great deal of work?

I've no expertise in programming however I was hoping to start my own blog in the near future. Anyway, should you have any recommendations or tips for new blog owners please share. I understand this is off topic however I just had to ask. Appreciate it!
